I'm not entirely sure why holistic treatments would be controversial in animals. Perhaps what makes them controversial is the fact that we tend to assume we know what makes them holistic and how they will be holistic for the animal - this isn't necessarily the case, as we can only make a good guess about it.
I would use assessing your health, By learning about your body, your situation, what your numbers mean, and what to do about it, you can prevent many future health problems.
